Oh look Correa home run. Maybe we can leave this game out of his stats to prove a point too :lol:

This thread is the first time Keuchel and Archer have made me smile this season.

I think knucklehead is really Ron Shandler in disguise. It's funny that you say it's still "early" for Chris Archer and Dallas "3rd round" Keuchel, yet its over for Carlos Correa. Lets see what the whole year looks like before comparing Carlos Correa to Freddy Galvis. Congrats on your predictions!!!!!!! :roll:

:lol: :roll: oh wait, I am not qualified to have an opinion. I drafted Correa in the first round. (In a Chris Farley voice) I am such an idiot!!

Waiting until it's over to make predictions seems to work against the point of making predictions. :D

"Nothing is left to be determined" and "Final Grades" sounds like you have already congratulated yourself on a job well done. :roll: The season is not even 1/4 done. Let's revisit at year end and see how (not so) brilliant you are.

My favorite part of this debate is the part where Correa crooners get to argue the success of Correa in 2 day spurts, while I get to argue his failures for 35 days at a time.

Let's revisit it now...Which one of the other Top-10 ADP players would you choose Carlos Correa over today if we were redrafting:

1 Mike Trout
2 Paul Goldschmidt
3 Bryce Harper
4 Clayton Kershaw
5 Josh Donaldson
6 Nolan Arenado
7 Manny Machado
8 Anthony Rizzo
9 Giancarlo Stanton
10 Jose Altuve

If you can't name 5 or 6, then Correa was drafted too high, because his ADP was ahead of Donaldson's.

I take it you're not going to try and say that Dee Gordon was not a definitive bust? Those who drafted Gordon at pick 20 were fools.

knuckle and greeny must go to bed dreaming of opposite ends of the correa spectrum. i just like seeing them going back and forth on something that is meaningless at this point.

pic of knuckle and greeny with their support groups... (knuckle watching correa hoping for a K; greeny hoping for a HR) :lol:

I have Correa on 1 of my 5 live event teams and I don't have him on any other significant teams. On my auction team, where I have Correa, I also have Arenado and Arrieta. So, I will be fine, Gekko. I don't care what Correa does. I just find it idiotic that someone is judging a draft pick based upon 1/4 of the season. On the other hand, we can say nite nite to Eickoff. He's done :lol: :lol: :lol:
